Sorry Teresa, I know this is not your favourite Matilda song, but I can't help it: here is the song of the day!Whenever I hear this song I remember the little show that Andrew, my Australian host brother, and his classmates had prepared for their Japanese trip years and years ago...

I wish I could go to Basel this weekend, to see this fantastic fair and visit this wonderful gallery. And most specifically, I'd want to stare at the colours and structures of the artworks of Beat Zoderer. I somehow always get a happy and beautiful feeling when I'm facing one of his chef-d'oeuvres...

We've finally hung the old school Australian mining resources map we bought in an antiques market in Amsterdam this spring. Just on time for Australia's first game in the World Cup tonight!

As you can see we are ready - the colours are up and the tatoos about to be applied. Go socceroos!Kieran, we'll be especially thinking of you - we know you'll be watching the game even if it's going to be the middle of the night in Hong Kong!Oh, let's not forget the song of the day - a wonderful version from 1986!

I was going outside to take a photo of the pretty pattern that the drying rain makes on our neighbour's balcony...

When one of the few planes that land in Maastricht airport everyday passed right above my head!I wouldn't really have noticed it usually, but this one is the one that's bringing Mart back home from his congress in Barcelona! Yippee!

Here are my favourite outfits from Sunday's fashionclash event. Now, the pictures below are definitely not representative of what we saw during the whole day. There were frills, there were scary masks, crazy fabrics and incredible constructions and colours. But somehow these interesting, challenging and most probably very fashion-forward outfits didn't make into my list of favourites... I guess I'm a bit too conservative... or just too practical. I think I liked the ones you will see below because I could see myself wearing them in real life... (and also because some of the models were hot! hehehe...).

Ok, time to get ready for Pilates. I will leave you with the song of the day and the rest of the lemon tea...! (this song has been playing over and over on the radio at work and today I just could not take it out of my head!)
